Speaker of the National Assembly, Prof. Ibrahim Ahmed Omer revealed, in his meeting here yesterday with members of the National Group for Human Rights, headed by Ibrahim Abdel Halim, revealed that the US sanctions and economic embargo on Sudan had a negative impact on the Sudanese economy, represented a greater threat to social security and kept Sudan in poverty and underdevelopment circle.
Prof. Omer called for the importance of changing the approach that is being dealt with the file of the American economic ban by moving the various sectors of the society, besides a diplomatic move to explain to the influential countries the social, political and economic impact caused by the embargo on Sudan.
